OM HANU PASHA BARA HEYE SOHA

All posts tagged OM HANU PASHA BARA HEYE SOHA

Time really flies so fast, it seems that I have just recently written about the 2014 Year of the Wood Horse forecast and in what seems a short time, I am now again writing about the 2015 Year of the Wood Sheep forecast.

In my previous posts, 2015 Year of the Wood Sheep Feng Shui Forecast Base on Bazi, Flying Stars, and 24 Mountain Stars Formula: A Balanced Year Filled with Wealth and Resources But May Be Ruled By Arguments and Fighting (Part 1)(Part 2), I talked about the year being ruled by the #3 Flying Star, which is also called the Argumentative Star. But really this star can cause more than just arguments, so it is important for you to remember that regardless of your Chinese Animal Zodiac Sign, you need to have the Holy Trinity of Protection for the year.

Note: To know more about the particular recommendation please click on the link. Some links may lead you to a different post that has different title but as you read along you’ll find that that particular recommendation is mentioned on that link. This only mean that I haven’t written about it separately. It might also lead you to a different site if I haven’t written about that particular recommendation at all. More importantly, I’m not selling any of the items below. Some are from my personal collection and some were just lifted from the net. You’ll also notice that some of the pictures are repetitive. This is for the benefit of the people who may opt to skip the signs that doesn’t matter to them.

This is also the third of the series of three posts. It will be nice if you can read all three posts to get a better picture of what’s in store for the year.

Kuan Yin with Heart Sutra to actively create harmony. As mentioned a Kuan Yin (1)(2)(3) pendant with the Heart Sutra can be very difficult to find, and although this is my top preference, separately carrying a Heart Sutra with you will definitely work as well.

This is from my personal collection. The reason I love this pendants so much is because it has a inscription of the Heart Sutra at the back. I wear the smaller one everyday.

My Kuan Yin pendant has the The Heart of Prajna Paramitra Sutra. Unfortunately, it is quite difficult to look for this kind of pendant. But getting a Kuan Yin pendant and separately carrying the Heart Sutra will work as well.

Lastly, a Kalachakra pendant, to continue protect you from the peripheral effects of the star, which may be cause by other people.

The Kalachakra Symbol is a powerful protection symbol. It is actually ten syllable mantra compressed into one symbol. The mantra is HO HAM KSHAMALA VARAYA HUM PHAT. However, it is usually chanted with OM AH HUM thus making the complete mantra as OM AH HUM HO HAM KSHAMALA VARAYA HUM PHAT. It is because off this that for the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT, I decided to put the symbolic script OM AH HUM on top of Kalachakra Symbol. You can get a Kalachakra pendant as well.

It has to be mentioned that Chinese New Year or the Lunar New Year that will usher in the year of the Wood Sheep doesn’t happen until Feb. 19, 2015. That is the day when we can really say it’s the New Year.

Furthermore, for the animal zodiac sign forecast, one should also remember that these are general forecast and difference will still happen base on your actual birth date. By birth date I refer to the month, day, and time. However, this should still serve as basic guideline.

Is synonymous to lucky this year. Maybe the luckiest of all the 12 animal signs, you will not lack of resources, opportunities, success, and if you play your cards right, even wealth. Your luck is brought about by the wonderful #8 Star also known as the Wealth Star! Furthermore, you are flanked by two Big Auspicious Star from the 24 Mountain Stars calculation! The name says it all and there’s no need to explain this. All you have to do is to focus on what is there to take, focus on the positive and your biggest enemy for the year is yourself if you are filled with self – doubt.

The only slightly hindrance to attaining your full luck potential is by the appearance of the Wu Duo Star. This normally bring about the loss of money, however, a large group of Feng Shui experts believes that when Wu Duo appears between two Big Auspicious stars then the effects are either lessened or totally negated. Nevertheless, it is still better to keep yourself aware of this possible loss so that you can be careful.

General Traits: Very intelligent, logical and clear thinking, calm but stubborn, independent, trusting, industrious, deep and original in thought, reliable, a good leader, intolerant, peace loving.

Aside from the #3 star that affects everybody, is surrounded by auspicious stars from the Flying Star formula, on the ‘house’ of an Ox lies the #6 flying star also known as the Heaven’s Blessing and Mentor Star, on the right is the #8 flying star that is also called wealth star and lastly on the left lies the #1 flying star known as the White Victory Star! All three combined creates the auspicious three – digit number 168. Furthermore, you also have the Big Auspicious star of the 24 Mountain Star formulas. The only conflict is that you’re Sui Po this year, which means you’re in direct conflict with the Tai Sui of the year, and on your left is the Annual Conflict star also from the 24 Mountain Star formulas.

What does this mean? This mean that you’re greatly blessed this year and wealth is definitely within your reach. Furthermore, you may always be victorious in all your endeavors and to top it off you won’t run out of help from powerful individuals who can make things easier for you. On top of that, if you remain good and harvest good karma, help will definitely come from heaven.

You just have to be careful about the Sui Po and the Annual Conflict star, because this can divert your attention from the real price. This translates into making you more susceptible to the effects of the #3 Star. So always remember that for you the best thing to do this year is simply to quietly walk away from arguments and quarrels. Don’t let it lead you to disaster and forget about better things.

The Ox is also greatly affected by the #3 Ruling Star. So better watch out for your temper.

Recommendations:

To enhance the good stars wear the White Victory Star wear the Victory Banner. You can also wear the image of Kuan Kong and Sun Wukong to enhance both the #6 and #8 flying stars.

Banner of Victory Pendant

Front side of the WEALTH AND MASTER PROTECTION PENDANT. This pendant is no longer available. This is just placed here to illustrate a Sun Wukong pendant.

Wear an image of the Piyao (Pi Xiu, Pixiu, Pi Xie, Pixie, Pi Yao) or Dou Mu Yuan Jun to appease the Tai Sui God of the year. I together with a help of a reader might come up with a Master Tai Sui Protection pendant. It’s called the Master Tai Sui Protection pendant because it will bear the image of Dou Mu Yuan Jun (to know more about her please click here) and a pair of Piyao. Hopefully, at the back it will bear the Tai Sui protection prayer. But more than that it is a Tai Sui pendant that will cover all the Tai Sui God, so one need not replace the Tai Sui amulet every year. Hope this comes to fruition.

Gold Piyao pendants worn as amulets are also very auspicious. This is a Piyao designed by Lillian too.

Dou Mu Yuan Jun or Goddess of the North Star is a powerful Deity to counter the effects of Tai Suey. She is said to be the creator of all the Tai Suey Gods does has the power to rule or control over them.

To protect oneself from the effects of the Annual Conflict, make sure you always have something red on your body. Just a little will do. So a little red gemstone worn, as jewelry will do.

Lastly, to protect oneself from the combined effects of the Sui Po and Annual Conflict stars, which create another negative chi, wear a gold Kalachakra or an image of Amitabha Buddha or Amitabha Buddha’s symbolic script.

This is a Kalachakra Pendant designed by Lillian Too. She has included some mandala sands inside the pendant to make it more potent. I personally love this pendant and has one that is made of white gold. The Kalachakra Symbol is a powerful protection symbol. It is actually ten syllable mantra compressed into one symbol. The mantra is HO HAM KSHAMALA VARAYA HUM PHAT. However, it is usually chanted with OM AH HUM thus making the complete mantra as OM AH HUM HO HAM KSHAMALA VARAYA HUM PHAT. It is because off this that for the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT, I decided to put the symbolic script OM AH HUM on top of Kalachakra Symbol.

Please note that some Ox because of the effect of the Paht Chee is highly susceptible to have health issues this year. This is specifically true to Ox born in the years 1973 and 1985. So wear an image of the Medicine Buddha or Medicine Buddha’s symbolic script or a prayer wheel containing the mantra of Medicine Buddha.

Is another animal sign that enjoys tremendous luck, while you don’t have the Wealth Star, remember that base on the Bazi of the year wealth is quite accessible for all of us. But you do have the #6 Flying Star and the #1 Flying Star, this means with the help from mentors or influential people and from Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Deities, Gods, you can certain attain success in all your endeavors.

However, the 24 Mountain Stars formula of Feng Shui shows you are affected by the Annual Conflict and you are slightly facing the Three – Killings. The Annual Conflict star will make you more susceptible to the #3 Flying Star that is also known as the Argumentative Star. The Three – Killings might also present some problems. Normally, the way to manage the Three Killings is to confront it but this year because the 5 Yellow Star resides in the same sector, confronting the 3 Killings might do more harm than good. But the good news is that you also the Heavenly Seal, which means help from Heaven will surely come your way, this should temper all the bad effects a little.

Lastly, don’t forget that you are also slightly facing the Tai Suey, so better protect yourself from the ill effects of the wrath of the Tai Sui God.

Always look at the face of the Kuan Kong pendant that you’re getting for yourself. The ‘braver’ the face the better.

Dou Mu Yuan Jun or Goddess of the North Star is a powerful Deity to counter the effects of Tai Suey. She is said to be the creator of all the Tai Suey Gods does has the power to rule or control over them.

To protect oneself from the effects of the Annual Conflict, make sure you always have something red on your body. Just a little will do. So a little red gemstone worn, as jewelry will do.

Had a tough year this 2014. A lot of people born under the sign of rabbit fell into some kind of health issues. Some were easily remedied with rest or popping a few pills, but a lot was a lot more serious. This year should be better, but a lot of you might still continue feeling a little under the blue. But other than your health issues, this should be a good year for people born under the sign of the rabbit. The #1 Flying Star called White Victory Star goes into your sector, this means that you will be victorious with your endeavors. Success will come easy to you.

On top of that in the 24 Mountain Star formula, you got the General Star or Star of the General. This means Rabbit born people who are in the leadership position will find themselves becoming real leaders, there will be more strength in your voice and you will be commanding with confidence.

You are also directly facing the 3 – Killings, and as we said this used to be an easy star to deal with, but this year because it resides at the West and is joined by the Five Yellow Star, it is best to avoid directly confronting the 3 – Killings.

To further enhance your power and authority, you can wear an image of Kuan Kong or a Ruyi.

To deal with the 3 Killings, all you have to do is wear an image of the Three Celestial Guardian, namely the Piyao, Fu Dog and Chi Lin (Qi Lin), or you can also wear an image of 3 different Buddhas, or Bodhisattvas, or Deities, or Taoist Gods or Goddesses. For those who have the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT, please note that the image of Medicine Buddha, Kuan Kong, and Yellow Dzambhala are more than enough to deal with the 3 Killings.

Is one of the luckiest signs the past years, but in the year 2015, which is lead by the Wood Sheep you’ll see yourself losing some steam. You’re usually brimming with self – confidence, however, due to the effects of the year’s bazi, you’ll find yourself losing some of these confidence. You might face a lot of challenges also. Whenever you faced self – doubt please just remember that you are right beside the #1 Flying Star, which is the White Victory Star. This should aid you in remembering that you can still be victorious as long as you regain that self – confidence and do away with all the negative thoughts.

More than the White Victory Star you should also know and always remember that you have the Big Auspicious Star from the 24 Mountain Star formulas. This means that this should be an auspicious year for you. Plus you also the Star of Golden Deity, thus you can expect help from the Gods.

However, the 24 Mountain Stars formula of Feng Shui shows you are affected by the Annual Conflict and you are slightly facing the Three – Killings. The Annual Conflict star will make you more susceptible to the #3 Flying Star that is also known as the Argumentative Star. The Three – Killings might also present some problems. Normally, the way to manage the Three Killings is to confront it but this year because the 5 Yellow Star resides in the same sector, confronting the 3 Killings might do more harm than good.

Also you’re afflicted with the Illness Star, which is the #2 Flying Star. While this year the said star is not as strong as last year, it is still wise to make sure that you take care of yourself, what your health and do not participate in any dangerous activities.

Recommendations:

Self – confidence is something difficult to deal with because it has something to do with your personality, so the best cure for this is really to remind yourself your worth. Nevertheless, to help keep an upbeat disposition in life, do wear a Star of David Crystal pendant; wear something that is made of citrine, amethyst, or clear quartz.

The Star of David pendant is a crystal pendant that is faceted in such a way that they call Star of David. It has a lot of uses, but one use of Star of David is to help strengthen your inner essence, and help renew energies.

Enhance the White Victory Star by wearing the Victory Banner and this should serve as a reminder to yourself that you do have the White Victory Star. Wearing a Kuan Kong will also help enhance this star.

Kuan Kong also spelled as Guan Gong is a warrior god. He is a very good protector and wealth god.

The best way to activate the Star of Golden Deity is by inviting to your house or wearing an image of a Buddha or Bodhisattva or Deity or a Taoist God in gold. I suggest one of the following: Kuan Yin, Kuan Kong, Sun Wukong, Yellow Dzambhala. In fact, you can get a different image for your house and a different one for a pendant. But since you are also suffering from self – doubt and lack of self – confidence I strong recommend wearing a gold pendant of an image of Kuan Kong or Sun Wukong.

This is from my private collection and is made of Smoky Citrine. I was just lucky to get this on ‘bargain’.

Should also have a good year. This is largely because of the effects of this year’s bazi to the fortune of the horse. You don’t have much wealth luck this year if fortune is going to be solely base on the Flying Star formula, but remember, wealth luck is accessible for all of us this year base on the year’s bazi. Your personal Windhorse is also your greatest asset this year.

You should be ready to take charge of the success that comes your way this year, don’t be timid, and while caution is always advice, be bullish and aggressive but at the same you should remain humble.

Furthermore, base on the 24 Mountain Stars formula, two Big Auspicious stars also visit you, this is great news, and on top of that, like the Dragon, you also have the Star of Golden Deity. All these should be enough to make your year a wonderful one.

But also take note that you were visited by the #2 Flying Star that is the Illness Star, but this year the star is not very strong but still it is best to take caution, because if you’re naturally weak or unhealthy this could have a grave effect on your health. Take note, you should also not tempt fate by engaging in dangerous activities or sports.

Wearing a Three Legged Toad Pendant is considered very auspicious and it captures wealth for you.

To further enhance your greatest assets this year that is the Wind Horse or Lung – Ta, wear an image of the Wind Horse or Lung – Ta.

The best way to activate the Star of Golden Deity is by inviting to your house or wearing an image of a Buddha or Bodhisattva or Deity or a Taoist God in gold. I suggest one of the following: Kuan Yin, Kuan Kong, Sun Wukong, Yellow Dzambhala. In fact, you can get a different image for your house and a different one for a pendant. But since you are also suffering from self – doubt and lack of self – confidence I strong recommend wearing a gold pendant of an image of Kuan Kong or Sun Wukong.

If inviting an image of a Buddha or Bodhisattva or Deity to activate the Golden Deity Star, make sure the image is also made in pure gold.

Is going to have a balanced year that in the sense that the luck that affects you is quite mixed. Because the sheep is an astrological ally, this would mean that the year would be generally in favor of you. Nevertheless, you have the flying star #7 known as the Violent Star or Star of Violence. There is a potential of robbery or some sort of violence happening in your life. So be extra careful and avoid going out at night and be carefree or careless.

While wealth luck is generally good for a lot of people, you should take extra care in being cautious in how you spend money. It is also possible that even if money is already within reach, sometimes you’ll see it getting lost.

The 24 Mountain Stars formula also indicates that you were sandwiched by two Big Auspicious Star, which means that this should be an auspicious year for you, but another adversary for the year is the Star of Reducing Energy that will manifest itself in making you feel tired and losing both physical and inner energy, this is further heightened by the fact that you are also in side conflict with the Illness Star. So better watch out for your health and always ensure that you stay in top shape because this will be your greatest stumbling block from attaining your full potential for the year. Remember, it is not only the body that may feel tire, but also your inner drive, your inner energy.

On top of that, you’re also in side conflict with the Tai Sui or Tai Suey, thus if not managed this might pose further problems with the Tai Sui God making things harder for you.

Recommendations:

To counter the effects of the #7 Flying Star you can invite into your home and wear the image of the following: Kuan Kong, Sun Wukong, Amitabha Buddha, or Kalachakra symbol. A Blue Rhinoceros with a Blue Elephant Feng Shui charm will also be helpful.

This is a Kalachakra pendant released by Lillian Too. I really love this pendant but find it too expensive. The Kalachakra Symbol is a powerful protection symbol. It is actually ten syllable mantra compressed into one symbol. The mantra is HO HAM KSHAMALA VARAYA HUM PHAT. However, it is usually chanted with OM AH HUM thus making the complete mantra as OM AH HUM HO HAM KSHAMALA VARAYA HUM PHAT. It is because off this that for the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT, I decided to put the symbolic script OM AH HUM on top of Kalachakra Symbol.

This is a lock coin gold pendant, which is sometimes mistaken as a money bag. If you find your luck quite unstable, or easily flowing out, use the lock coin to act as a safeguard for your luck to make it more stable.

For the Star of Reducing Energy, always make sure that you keep yourself in shape, and wear a Star of David made of amethyst or clear quartz. Furthermore, you’re also affected by the Illness Star and the Star of Reducing Energy might make it’s effect worse than normal, so you should definitely have Medicine Buddha pendant or Medicine Buddha Prayer Wheel.

I personally have a hand held, table top, and pendant Prayer Wheel. A Prayer Wheel has a very good calming effect. The prayer wheel will vary depending on the mantra placed inside. Nowadays, people use a prayer wheel with a microfilm to significantly increase the numbers of mantras that’s inside the prayer wheel.

Lastly, wear an image of the Piyao (Pi Xiu, Pixiu, Pi Xie, Pixie, Pi Yao) or Dou Mu Yuan Jun to appease the Tai Sui God of the year. I together with a help of a reader might come up with a Master Tai Sui Protection pendant. It’s called the Master Tai Sui Protection pendant because it will bear the image of Dou Mu Yuan Jun (to know more about her please click here) and a pair of Piyao. Hopefully, at the back it will bear the Tai Sui protection prayer. But more than that it is a Tai Sui pendant that will cover all the Tai Sui God, so one need not replace the Tai Sui amulet every year. Hope this comes to fruition.

Dou Mu Yuan Jun or Goddess of the North Star is a powerful Deity to counter the effects of Tai Suey. She is said to be the creator of all the Tai Suey Gods does has the power to rule or control over them.

Might have the notion or belief that this is going to be good year because this their year. Like always, I again would like to remind everybody that this is a misconception, and there’s no exception for this year. But it doesn’t mean it is going to be an extremely bad year for the Sheep (some will say Goat or Lamb). One thing you should realize is that you should appease the Tai Suey, if you do this properly you will definitely get his support and he will definitely help in making this year a very good year for you.

Base on the 24 Mountain Stars formula you have both the Big Auspicious and Small Auspicious stars, the difference is only in the amount of auspiciousness that they will bestow on you, but all you have to understand is that these are good stars and auspiciousness is definitely just around you.

You have to take note also that you have the #9 Flying Star or the Multiplying and Future Prosperity Star. Technically speaking, this is neither a good or bad star. The power of this star is to let you reap whatever you sow. This star basically multiplies whatever karma you accumulate. If you do more good things you’ll have more good luck in the future, but if you continue to do a lot of bad things, you multiply your negative karma as well. So if you’ve been good you need not worry because this year you’ll reap some of the good karma and help you go through the year, but if you’ve been bad you should try to negate all those negative karma and take advantage of this star by sincerely doing good. Remember, the operative word is sincerely.

Unfortunately, you’re in side conflict with the #7 Flying Star (also known as the Violent Star) and the #5 Flying Star (also known as the Five Yellow Star), which is one of the most dreaded stars. Thus you have to be really careful and ensure that you tempt fate by going out in the evening a lot. Always make sure that you are cautious, not totally paranoid, but cautious. The Five Yellow Star is also said to bring in 5 different kinds of misfortunes, so ensure that you get the help of the gods to keep you safe.

Lastly, your personal Lung – Ta or Windhorse is not very strong either, and this might make you feel a little down. So better strengthened your personal Lung – Ta also.

Recommendations:

The first thing you should do is wearing an image of the Piyao (Pi Xiu, Pixiu, Pi Xie, Pixie, Pi Yao) or Dou Mu Yuan Jun to appease the Tai Sui God of the year. I together with a help of a reader might come up with a Master Tai Sui Protection pendant. It’s called the Master Tai Sui Protection pendant because it will bear the image of Dou Mu Yuan Jun (to know more about her please click here) and a pair of Piyao. Hopefully, at the back it will bear the Tai Sui protection prayer. But more than that it is a Tai Sui pendant that will cover all the Tai Sui God, so one need not replace the Tai Sui amulet every year. Hope this comes to fruition. But more than that, on the entry of Feb 19, 2015 (midnight of Feb 18, 2015 and Feb. 19, 2015) do light incense on your altar or west section of your house.

Always get a Pi Yao pendant that has an active stance.

Kuan Kong Gold Pendant

The Kalachakra Pendant is one of the most powerful Buddhism tools to counter negative energies. Kalachakra doesn’t have a direct translation in any other language but it loosely means ‘the one with 10 powers’. It is also a very powerful protection pendant. You’ll normally see Buddhist monk wear this somewhere around their body. I personally have 3 different Kalachakra pendants. One is made of crystal quartz engraved with a the Kalachakra, another one is made of stainless steel but enclose on it are colored Kalachakra sand and was personally blessed by Lama Zopa Rinpoche. The third Kalachakra pendant is a white gold Kalachakra with Kalachakra Mandala Sand from one of the Kalachakra initiation conducted by the Dalai Lama, this third piece is truly a collector’s item because there are only 1,000 pieces made.

To manage the Five Yellow Star or #5 Flying Star, wear a gold Kalachakra or a 5 – Element Pagoda (Five Element Pagoda) note that the pagoda pendant should be made of metal, either silver or gold, not jade or other semi – precious stone.

Has superb inner essence and Windhorse or Lung – Ta and this is your greatest asset for the year. Just remember to keep an open mind and remember while challenges await you, draw strength from your inner strength and go forward. Remember that for the year it is important to focus on small successes that will lead to the big ones. Do not be too aggressive and ignore the small ones just because you have your eyes set on the golden apple. Remember before you to the million you will need to start with the smallest coin.

The Flying Star formula shows that you have the Multiplying and Future Prosperity Star, technically speaking; this is neither a good or bad star. The power of this star is to let you reap whatever you sow. This star basically multiplies whatever karma you accumulate. If you do more good things you’ll have more good luck in the future, but if you continue to do a lot of bad things, you multiply your negative karma as well. So if you’ve been good you need not worry because this year you’ll reap some of the good karma and help you go through the year, but if you’ve been bad you should try to negate all those negative karma and take advantage of this star by sincerely doing good. Remember, the operative word is sincerely. But your luck will largely depend on what you sow before.

You’re also in side conflict with the Tai Sui so it is important that you appease him because an angry Tai Sui can make it a difficult year for you.

Remember that you are also in side conflict with the #7 Flying Star, also known as the Violent Star or Star of Violence. Thus it is important that you be very careful. This coupled with the Robbery Star of the 24 Mountain Stars formula is a sure indication that you will have to be careful, be wary of possible backstabbing and betrayal also. There is a possibility of loss of money also.

Lastly, you are also in side conflict with the dreaded #5 Yellow Star, which 5 kinds of misfortunes, thus you must remember that you should definitely protect yourself against this star.

While you are in side conflict with the 3 – Killings this should pose no threat to you. Luckily, you also have the Star of Small Auspicious, and this should reiterate that you should focus more on smaller successes that leads to the big one rather than go straight for the biggest prize.

Recommendations:

Enhance your Windhorse by wearing an image of it, which is also known as Lung – Ta.

The Windhorse or Lung-Ta is another powerful Buddhist symbol that brings success and prosperity. For those who wants to get a promotion or advancement in their career or business having the Windhorse around your body will aid you to achieve this dream. Also the Lung-Ta or Windhorse may bring travel luck.

Wear an image of the Piyao (Pi Xiu, Pixiu, Pi Xie, Pixie, Pi Yao) or Dou Mu Yuan Jun to appease the Tai Sui God of the year. I together with a help of a reader might come up with a Master Tai Sui Protection pendant. It’s called the Master Tai Sui Protection pendant because it will bear the image of Dou Mu Yuan Jun (to know more about her please click here) and a pair of Piyao. Hopefully, at the back it will bear the Tai Sui protection prayer. But more than that it is a Tai Sui pendant that will cover all the Tai Sui God, so one need not replace the Tai Sui amulet every year. Hope this comes to fruition.

Gold Piyao pendants worn as amulets are also very auspicious.

Dou Mu Yuan Jun or Goddess of the North Star is a powerful Deity to counter the effects of Tai Suey. She is said to be the creator of all the Tai Suey Gods does has the power to rule or control over them.

To manage the Five Yellow Star or #5 Flying Star, wear a gold Kalachakra or a 5 – Element Pagoda (Five Element Pagoda) note that the pagoda pendant should be made of metal, either silver or gold, not jade or other semi – precious stone.

The Kalachakra Symbol is a powerful protection symbol. It is actually ten syllable mantra compressed into one symbol. The mantra is HO HAM KSHAMALA VARAYA HUM PHAT. However, it is usually chanted with OM AH HUM thus making the complete mantra as OM AH HUM HO HAM KSHAMALA VARAYA HUM PHAT. It is because off this that when I designed the Wish Fulfilling and Buddha’s Blessing Mantra Pendant, I decided to put the symbolic script OM AH HUM on top of Kalachakra Symbol.

There are different versions of the 5-Element Pagoda. However, personally the original version and a small one, I believe, is okay and powerful enough to counter the effects of the 5-Yellow Star.

Is going to face a challenging year ahead, BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT YOU HAVE A STRONG LUNG – TA AND INNER ESSENCE SO THIS SHOULD HELP YOU GET THROUGH IT. The energies of the year are quite hostile towards people born under the sign of the rooster. The best thing to do for the Rooster this year is to work hard, strive hard, but keep a low profile. Don’t challenge the universe. Wealth luck is not impossible because the year’s bazi shows that wealth luck is attainable and therefore if you keep yourself protected you should be able to go through the year with problem.

You do have to be wary about the dreaded Five – Yellow Star or the #5 Flying Star though. This star is also Wu Wang; it says to cause 5 kinds of misfortunes that may affect your health, wealth, personal relationship, safety amongst others. Thus ensure other than getting the support of the Buddhas or Bodhisattvas or Deities or Taoist Gods to keep you protected and safe. You do have to watch out for your temper and manage stress because little things might lead to bigger problems. The #3 Flying Star, which is the ruling star that affects all the animal sign, will also affect you more than the other signs also. Thus remember to always keep your temper and feelings in check.

You’re also affected by the Three – Killings, and if you read my posts about the 2015 Year of the Wood Sheep forecast, I said that for the year you shouldn’t really deal with the 3 – Killings because it is with the 5 – Yellow Star, but because you’re in the same sector, you will be naturally dealing with it, therefore it should not pose any problem. Nevertheless, it is still best to keep yourself protected.

Lastly, also with 24 Mountain Stars Formula, you are further affected by the Natural Disaster Star, and this stars doesn’t really just refer to rains or earthquakes but may also mean personal disasters that may naturally occur.

Admittedly, its difficult to find a ‘3-Celestial Guardian’ Pendant. A key chain will do. However, that’s also the reason why I designed my WEALTH AND MASTER PROTECTION PENDANT with the 3-Celestial Guardian at the back.

Front side of the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT. Putting this here to remind those who already have the pendant that this will work as well for the Three Killings. Please note that no more request for the pendant are being entertained.

Wear a Windhorse or Lung – Ta to further enhance it and add a Star of David made of either citrine, amethyst, or clear quartz to further enhance your inner strength. Add the seed syllable OM also to further help enhance life forces. Furthermore, a Victory Banner is also going to be helpful in making sure you get some victories in your endeavor.

The Star of David pendant is a crystal pendant that is faceted in such a way that they call Star of David. It has a lot of uses, but one use of Star of David is to help strengthen your inner essence, and help renew energies.

To manage the #3 Flying Star that rules all of us this year, make sure you have the Holy Trinity of Protection for the year namely the Kuan Yin with the Heart Sutra (you can carry the Heart Sutra separately), Kuan Kong and the Kalachakra.

Kuan Yin and the Heart Sutra will help promote harmony and you’ll need that both with your personal and professional life.

Back side of my Kuan Yin pendant. You can see though it’s small the The The Heart of the Prajna Paramita Sutra is written behind it.

I personally have a hand held, table top, and pendant Prayer Wheel. A Prayer Wheel has a very good calming effect.

From my personal collection. A rare Red Amber Ksitigarbha.Unfortunately, it is quite difficult to get a Ksitigarbha pendant unless you’re from Malaysia, Hong Kong, or Singapore.

Remember to always ask for blessings and from protection from the heaven. And donating blood might be a good way to help take away some of the danger. Also wash yourself with a salt bath for the first 7 days of the week, and another 7 days in the middle of year. Getting a Namtso Salt for your bedroom, office, and living room will also be very beneficial.

Lastly, get extra protection from the Natural Disaster by wearing an image of one of the following: Kuan Kong, Sun Wukong, and Amitabha Buddha.

Will see that while wealth luck is within reach, this is a year to focus more on family, personal, and scholastic life. The wealth that a person born under the sign of a dog will come from this year bazi and not the flying star. This means that you will have to be more resourceful that usual, and you can get this luck by having a scholastic approach, meaning do research and study about the situation carefully. Whatever you do, remember career and wealth should not be your main goal this year. It should be your personal and family life.

The 24 Mountain Stars formula also indicate that you have the Star of Annual Killing or Yearly Killing, the effect of this star is that you have the tendency to become emotionally imbalance and mentally imbalance, this does not mean that you’ll go crazy, but this will mean that you may not be in your usual self when dealing with things. I hate being negative, but it seems that this star is quite strong this year and that some event that may be traumatic and may grave effect on your psychological and emotional well – being is really likely to happen. Furthermore, the Star of the Yin House also visits you, this means you will be more susceptible to the effects of Yin energies and you have to make sure that you continuously have a dose of Yang energy to counter this. Lastly, you are also in side conflict with the Three – Killings, but this should not pose any serious problem but it is still better to protect yourself from it.

Before we end the forecast for the Dog, you should also remember that you’re in side conflict with the 5 Yellow Star of the flying star formula, this star is said to bring 5 kinds of misfortunes, thus it is best to keep yourself protected from this star.

To help suppress your Star of Annual Killing, wear a gemstone, I suggest going for jade. You can also wear the seed syllables HUM or TAM. Combine this with the image of the Kalachakra and a protective Buddha or Bodhisattva like Amitabha Buddha, Kuan Kong. Note the Medicine Buddha is also a protective Buddha.

Hum Pendant

The Seed Syllable Tam

Always look at the face of the Kuan Kong pendant that you’re getting for yourself. The ‘braver’ the face the better.

It’s quite easy to manage the Yin House, engage in Yang activities like sports, go out and enjoy nature specially the sun, play positive games, eat out with friends, listen to good music, and I know my friend and reader DU will be happy to hear this, wear gold. By gold I mean yellow gold, make this in the image of Buddhas or Bodhisattvas and other powerful images to make it more Yang.

Admittedly, its difficult to find a ‘3-Celestial Guardian’ Pendant. A key chain will do. However, that’s also the reason why I designed my WEALTH AND MASTER PROTECTION PENDANT with the 3-Celestial Guardian at the back.

Lastly, to manage the Five Yellow Star or #5 Flying Star, wear a gold Kalachakra or a 5 – Element Pagoda (Five Element Pagoda) note that the pagoda pendant should be made of metal, either silver or gold, not jade or other semi – precious stone.

There are different versions of the 5-Element Pagoda. However, personally the original version and a small one, I believe, is okay and powerful enough to counter the effects of the 5-Yellow Star.

The PIG…

General Traits: Just, discerning, wise, intellectual and well-informed, lucky with money and in friendship, always admired, self-indulgent, cultured, loyal, reliable, may be naïve at times, loves to gain more knowledge, may be flamboyant.

Has quite a confusing year ahead. Wealth luck both from the Flying Star and the year’s Bazi or Paht Chee is available for the Pig or Boar to take, however, initial glance on the year’s bazi to the effects on a person born under the sign of the pig shows that there is some form of lethargy that will be experienced. Your personal Windhorse is also somewhat weakened and this might have an effect on your overall success and victorious luck for the year. You might feel easily disappointed or discouraged. On top of your inner essence is a little weak thus making you more susceptible to negative energies or negative chi.

You’ll also find yourself better pursuing personal and family luck rather than career and wealth luck, but this doesn’t mean that the last two will be elusive it only means, your personal and family life should take a front seat this year. When it comes to money or career, it is better if you engage more on a scholastic approach, this doesn’t mean that your luck is limited to education or research but whatever you do you should do your research and study the matter really well.

The 24 Mountain Stars formula shows that you the Star of Big Auspicious and the Earth Seal Star. The Big Auspicious star will bring a lot of auspiciousness to different aspects of your life and it might balance out some of the negative effects of the flying star and the year’s bazi or Paht Chee, but what you really should be happy about is the Earth Seal Star, because this brings about stability in all your endeavors. However, those who will find themselves changing career might not benefit from this star so much.

However, you have to be careful about the Yin House Star. This means that the star will make you more vulnerable to yin energies or may make you more susceptible to it. The effects depending on the how much Yin attracts may be from a simple setback, slight fever, or to accidents and grave misfortune.

You are also in side conflict with the Five Yellow Star, the effect of this star is greater for people born under the sign of the Dog, but nevertheless it is better if you protect yourself from the 5 misfortunes brought about this star.

Of course, wearing a Windhorse is also highly recommended. And to strengthen the Star of Earth Seal, wear any gemstones. I personally believe that everybody should have at least one jade, so hit two birds in one stone, and just wear jade. An image of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is also a very powerful enhancer for the powers of the Earth Seal. Furthermore, you need a lock coin pendant to help catch on the wealth luck.

Windhorse or Lung-Ta with the ‘Wish Fulfilling Jewel of Enlightenment’ on its back.Please note that this is the Lung Ta or Wind Horse, just found out that some people try to sell of an ordinary image of an ordinary horse saying its a Lung Ta.

From my personal collection. A rare Red Amber Ksitigarbha. If wearing it as a pendant, I prefer the image with the five leave crown.Unfortunately, it is quite difficult to get a Ksitigarbha pendant unless you’re from Malaysia, Hong Kong, or Singapore.

This is a lock coin gold pendant, which is sometimes mistaken as a money bag. If you find your luck quite unstable, or easily flowing out, use the lock coin to act as a safeguard for your luck to make it more stable.

It is quite easy to deal with the Star of Yin House, all you have to do is engaged in Yang activities like go out and have fun, listen to uplifting music, play some mantras, or chant mantras, eat out with families and friends, be surrounded by naturally more yang animals like dogs and birds, be surrounded with flowers, and much to my friend and reader DU’s happiness wear gold. To add more yang wear gold in the image of the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas or Deities. By the way, a Happy Buddha is also very Yang.

This piece looks much better in person than in this picture but I know somebody who got this pendant. The person was having a hard time deciding, but for some reason when this picture was taken there seem to appear an aura like image. Also, this particular Maitreya Buddha pendant or Happy Buddha pendant is quite different because if you look at its face it has a happy but calm or serene face.By the way, I’m sure there is a valid scientific explanation for the appearance of the aura, but for it to happened at the time when the person is deciding to get it or not, is something that can’t be easily explained.

Lastly, to manage the Five Yellow Star or #5 Flying Star, wear a gold Kalachakra or a 5 – Element Pagoda (Five Element Pagoda) note that the pagoda pendant should be made of metal, either silver or gold, not jade or other semi – precious stone.

There are different versions of the 5-Element Pagoda. However, personally the original version and a small one, I believe, is okay and powerful enough to counter the effects of the 5-Yellow Star.

To get better view of what is in store for the year please read all the post on this series:

In my previous post, I talked about the forecast for the 2015 Year of the Wood Sheep, mainly focusing on the Bazi or Paht Chee with the annual Flying Stars and 24 Mountain Stars. There I talked about the Holy Trinity of Protection for the year, which are the images of Kuan Yin, Kuan Kong and a Kalachakra.

Image lifted from Google Images.

In all my forecast I start with the East, but I’d like to change that a little this time. Let’s start with the center because this is quite important.

The Center has the #3 Flying Star, which is also, called the ARGUMENTATIVE STAR, because of this, the year is then ruled by this particular star. The 3# Flying Star’s element is also wood, and as we know, if coupled with the Bazi reading of the year which is largely ruled by the Wood element it thus then make the ruling star a very strong one. Its natural strength is enhanced and doubled.

Effects: The Flying Star #3 also known, as the Argumentative Star is a star that causes relationship problem, numerous bickering, litigation problems, quarrels and problems/conflicts with people in authority. This year it will greatly affect all of us. And it is further doubled if your office or room is in the center of the house, building, establishment, etc. Furthermore, as mentioned in the earlier post, there’s a destructive pillar in this year’s Paht Chee chart, namely the word element destroying the earth element this further strengthens the quarrelsome nature of the star. If not controlled and suppressed, this star will bring about tremendous with your family and officemates or business partners. It can also cause a lot of unnecessary legal issues. This star has to be suppressed.

It also has to be noted for this year, that all of us are affected by this star, but the most affected are the animal signs whose intrinsic element is earth and people whose self – element is earth are the most affected.

Feng Shui Cure: Normally the best cures for this star are either the Ksitigarbha Fireball or the Nine – Ring Sword of Kuan Kong. The image of Kuan Kong is also a very good cure for this star. People affected by this star can wear or carry an image of the cures. The Maitreya Buddha also known as the Happy Fat Buddha is also a great help. These are what I normally recommend. However, for this year, as mentioned in my previous post, we will all need the Holy Trinity of Protection for 2015 Year of the Wood Sheep. The said Holy Trinity of Protection are Kuan Kong, which will suppressed the said star, Kalachakra for the peripheral effect, and Kuan Yin with Heart Sutra (you can carry the Heart Sutra separately) to create harmony. It is not enough for us to simply suppress and protect ourselves from the effects of the said star, we must actively create harmony. Inviting the said images in your home, and wearing their images as a pendant will protect us from the terrible effects of the said #3 Argumentative Flying Star. For those who have the Wish Fulfilling and Buddha’s Blessing Mantra Pendant, all you need is to get an image of Kuan Yin and a Heart Sutra that you can carry around.

Front side of my Kuan Yin Pendant

Back side of my Kuan Yin pendant. You can see though it’s small the The The Heart of the Prajna Paramita Sutra is written behind it.

In wearing a Kuan Kong pendant remember to look for one that has a fierce face and better to get them in gold or something that has a red face.

The Kalachakra symbol is one of the most powerful protection symbol in Buddhism. It actually consists of ten syllable mantra, with it symbolic script condensed into one. The mantra itself is HO HAM KSHAMALA VARAYA HUM PHAT. However, the mantra of the Kalachakra is never chanted without the mantra OM AH HUM. Making the complete mantra of Kalachakra – OM AH HUM HO HAM KSHAMALA VARAYA HUM PHAT. This is the reason why I decided to put the symbolic script of the mantra OM AH HUM on top of the Kalachakra symbol. As mentioned this is a very powerful protection symbol and can be likened to the Scapular of the Catholics. In fact, you’ll seldom see a Tibetan Monk with wearing the symbol of the Kalachakra on their body. It may be hidden but most likely they have it somewhere on their body. But you’ll never see them have the symbolic scripts tattooed because it is considered extremely bad luck to have a mantra tattooed on your body.

If you wish to wear or invite ‘non – religious’ images for this star, you can use the Ksitigarbha Fireball or Nine – Ringed Sword with apple, and Kalachakra. Kalachakra is a religious image but it doesn’t bear the image of a Buddha or Bodhisattva.

The Ksitigarbha Fireball is a pearl on the hand of Ksitigarbha Buddha that fires up when there are negative energies.

The Nine Ring Sword is the sword carried by Kuan Kong.

However, I think what is more important to know here is that depending on the location of the seat power, some countries might experience more political instability because of fighting. Some countries might even brew a possibility of war. Middle East countries are definitely affected with this star and the China might also be affected, although knowing China, it is highly possible that this is going to be because of their own doing. South East Asia is technically not very much affected of this star, but since this is the ruling star and because of their proximity to China, this might affect them. For the Philippines, base on the chart, our sea dispute with China might further escalate. We can only hope that the peaceful Tai Suey and ruling sign of the year will be enough to temper the effects of this star. Leaders who are calm are needed now.

THE EAST HAS THE #1 FLYING STAR CALLED WHITE VICTORY STAR

Effects: This star brings luck to your endeavors. It helps ensure your success. This year the White Victory Star also ensures that people whose main door faces the east will have wondrous victory luck.

Effects: As the name implies, this star causes illness and to some extent it can be fatal or terminal. Sometime, this star can also cause some accidents that may make you invalid for a long time if not permanently. However, while it will still affect the eldest daughter of the family, this year it is a weak star.

Feng Shui Cure: The primary cure for the ILLNESS STAR is the Medicine Buddha. Wear an image of the Medicine Buddha as pendant or wear the symbolic script of the mantra of the Medicine Buddha or wear a Medicine Buddha prayer wheel to help counter the ill effects of the said star. Chanting the mantra of the Medicine Buddha is also a great way to manage the said star. Secondary cure is Wulou (also spelled as Wu Lou) or Holy Gourd. Please note that it is considered very disrespectful if you put an image of the Medicine Buddha in your room, so in this case one can put the Holy Gourd.

Jade Wulou Pendant

THE SOUTH HAS THE #7 FLYING STAR ALSO CALLED THE VIOLENT STAR

Effects: The star brings hostility and loss through robbery, theft, or even manipulation.

Feng Shui Cure: One of the following items – Image of Sun Wukong (aka Monkey God), Image of Kuan Kong (also known as Kuan Ti, Guan Ti, Kuan Te Ya, Guan Te Ya, Guan Gong), Image Elephant with Rhinoceros. For people who are staying on this side have the house or office, or for people born under the sign of the horse, it is advisable to wear an image of Sun Wukong, Kuan Kong, or a Mantra Pendant. The WEALTH AND MASTER PROTECTION PENDANT that has the image of THE GREAT SAGE, EQUAL OF HEAVEN – SUN WUKONG, and the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT that has the image of Kuan Kong are also advisable.

Sun Wukong aka Monkey God aka Pilgrim aka ‘Great Sage, Equal to Heaven’ is a very powerful wealth and protector god. He is one of the few deities worshipped both in Taoism (also spelled as Daoism) and Buddhism.

THE SOUTHWEST HAS THE #9 FLYING STAR CALLED THE MULTIPLYING AND FUTURE PROSPERITY STAR AND IT IS JOINED BY THE TAIS SUEY GOD OF THE YEAR

Effects: Technically speaking, this is neither a good or bad star. The power of this star is to let you reap whatever you sow. This star basically multiplies whatever karma you accumulate. If you do more good things you’ll have more good luck in the future, but if you continue to do a lot of bad things, you multiply your negative karma as well.

Feng Shui Cure: Last year, I didn’t put any enhancer or cure recommendations because I want people to be more conscious about what they do. However, a reader told me that there are times that we simply, without intending to be bad, create some things that earn us negative karma. For this I highly recommend either the image of the Medicine Buddha or the symbolic script of the mantra OM AH HUM or OM HANU PASHA BARA HE YE SOHA both of which are on the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT.

However, it should be noted that this year, the Tai Suey God is also in the South. It has to be noted that Tai Suey is not part of the Flying Star but we need to always take this into consideration because offending the Tai Suey will create a lot of bad luck.

The Taoists, where most of how we do Feng Shui originated, believes that a certain God called Tai Suey or Tai Sui or Grand Duke in English rules a year. This year 2015, Tai Sui of the year is Great General Yang Xian. However, you have to understand a little about Taoist Gods for you to be able to understand why we have to be careful in dealing with the Tai Suey.

Great General Yang Xian is the 2015 Tai Sui God.

Taoist Gods are like humans with supernatural powers. They have magical and godly powers but they may also have human temperament and they also have characters and personalities. Meaning, they can get angry with our acts, they can be disturbed and get angry with us and thus render a punishment to us, or maybe the simple act of them getting irritated with us might create some misfortune. However, they can also be appease and happy with us and render us some good blessings, or again, the simple act of the Tai Suey getting happy with us will create some good fortune.

To help ensure that Tai Suey is happy with us always carry an image of the Pi Yao or Pi Xiu. This celestial animal will help appease the Grand Duke or Tai Suey. Another image that can help manage the Tai Suey God is to carry, display or wear an image of the Wind Horse or Lung Ta. People born in the year of the Sheep and Ox are directly affected by the Tai Suey God (also spelled as Tai Sui, Tai Sue) but those born under the sign of the horse, monkey, tiger and rat are also indirectly afflicted by way of side of afflictions. should have either the Piyao or Lung – Ta. Also, if your door faces SouthWest, or if your bedroom and office is in the SouthWest you should also put the image of the Piyao or Lung Ta or Windhorse. People who are occupying the SouthWest also should wear or carry the image of the Piyao or Lung Ta. Also one of the best protections for the Tai Suey is an image of the Goddess of the North Star or Dou Mu Yuan Jun, thus having her image is also highly advisable.

Always get a Pi Yao pendant that has an active stance.

Dou Mu Yuan Jun or Goddess of the North Star is a powerful Deity to counter the effects of Tai Suey. She is said to be the creator of all the Tai Suey Gods does has the power to rule or control over them.

THE WEST HAS THE #5 FLYING STAR OR THE DREADED FIVE YELLOW STAR AND THE THREE KILLINGS

Effects: The 5 – Yellow Star is the worst of all negative stars! It’s the most dreaded star. It is said to bring 5 different kinds of misfortunes!

Feng Shui Cure: AGAIN! AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE MOVE OUT FROM THIS SECTION OR DON’T USE THIS SECTION. You can also use the Five Element Pagoda (5 – Element Pagoda), or the Kalachakra. For people who stays in this section of the house or building and if you can’t move out of this sector, it is very important that you wear either the Kalachakra or the Five Element Pagoda. Furthermore, people born in the year of the Rooster should also ensure that they wear either the Five Element Pagoda or the Kalachakra.

Five Element Pagoda

This year the Three Killings also found its way to the West, thus making a double whammy on this sector. Unlike the Tai Suey or the Five Yellow Star, which we must avoid, the 3 – Killings is something that we must confront. Meaning, the best way to deal with it is to face the Three Killings and not turn our back against it. If the 3 Killings is not confronted then it can wreak three kinds of misfortunes to a person. The three misfortunes are accident, financial loss, and illness. However, since it’s with the #5 Star confronting it might be bad for us.

So a good way of dealing with the Three Killings is to place the image of the Three Celestial Guardians or images of three different Buddha, Bodhisattva, Deity or Immortal in the West section of the room, house, office, and building. Those who are staying in the West section of their house, office, building, or room must wear an image of the Three Celestial Guardians or images of three different Buddhas or Bodhisattvas or Deities or Immortals.

Front side of the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT. It has the image of the Kuan Kong, Medicine Buddha, and Yellow Dzambhala. Unfortunately, the pendant is temporarily not available until all the pendants has been served.

THE NORTHWEST HAS THE #4 FLYING STAR ALSO KNOWN AS THE SCHOLASTIC AND ROMANCE STAR

Effects: Romance luck is heightened if your room is on this side of the house. For single people, you might have the possibility of finding love. For partnered people, you might find your love getting more ‘fragrant’. However, for married couple the effect might be two fold. First, you might find yourself loving each other more deeply, but there might also be the possibility of a third party getting involved. It is also called Scholastic Star because it also has a good effect on the scholastic pursuits of a person. Meaning, students may become more studious, and professionals might find that it’s easier to understand documents.

Feng Shui Enhancer: For single person you can put a Rose Quartz Mandarin Ducks on your bedside. For married couple, you can hang the Double Happiness on your headboard. To safeguard yourself from a third party, tie an Amethyst Geode with Red String on the foot of your bed or ask your partner to wear a gold image of Kuan Kong. You can also use the power of Green Tara to ensure that this star works for the positive only.

Amethyst Geode with Red String.

THE NORTH HAS THE #8 FLYING STAR CALLED WEALTH STAR

(Thank you to the one who called my attention for the typo.)

Effects: This star is a very good star. It gives you abundance and to some a ‘bottomless’ pocket filled with money. This star is not just about money wealth but this is also for over – all abundance. People born under the sign of Rat, Ox, and Pig or Boar will benefit from this star.

Feng Shui Enhancers: Faux gold Coins or Bars or Ingots should be place on this sector. Wear an image of a Wealth Deity like the Maitreya Buddha, Kuan Kong, or Sun Wukong.

Faux Gold Coins, Ingots, and Bars are available in Ongpin.

Kuan Kong / Guan Gong / Guan Ti / Guan Yu / Guan Sheng Ti Jun

THE NORTHEAST HAS THE #6 FLYING STAR CALLED HEAVEN’S BLESSINGS AND MENTOR STAR

Effects: This star helps set the ‘tone’ of the year for people whose office, or room is in the NE side of the house or building. Meaning, if you continuously do more good the more blessed you’re going to be. This also means that if you’re Chinese Animal Zodiac is not so good, you will have help from Heaven (Buddha, Bodhisattvas, Deities, Immortals, or Saints). This also means that you’ll be lucky enough to have people who will help you achieve your goal.

Feng Shui Enhancers: In your room or office put some crystal ball or 6 White Jade tied with a red string. People who are staying in this sector and people born in the year of the Tiger and Ox will do well if they invite an image of a Buddha or Bodhisattva or Deity or Immortal by wearing their image as a pendant. I personally suggest one of the following: Kuan Kong, Avalokitesvara aka Kuan Yin, Maitreya Buddha aka Happy Fat Buddha, Shakyamuni Buddha, Medicine Buddha, Yellow Dzambhala,Green Tara.

There are several different forms or manifestations of Dzambhala (also spelled as Jambala or Dzambala). Dzambala is a Buddhism Wealth God. The one in the picture is the most common or most famous manifestation of Dzambhala which is the Yellow Dzambhala.

To get better view of what is in store for the year please read all the post on this series:

The 2015 Year of the Wood Sheep (also called as Goat or rarely Lamb) doesn’t usher in until Feb. 19, 2015, but as early as now people are already clamoring for a forecast. So here is the first part of my analysis base on the year bazi or paht chee, flying stars and 24 mountain stars formula.

Photo Uploaded from Google Images

The bazi or Paht Chee of the year of the Wood Sheep (2015) is a balanced chart, meaning it has all the 5 elements: wood (3), earth (2), water (1), metal (1), and fire (1).

Let us focus on the Wood element first because it has the highest number of appearance on the chart that is not counting the hidden elements. Wood, represents wealth this year, and I’m really happy that the number 3 is just perfect because would it have been 4 and 5 it might mean that we will all be aspiring for wealth that is totally unattainable, so 3 is just right. Having said this, it is clear that 2015 Year of the Wood Sheep presents a lot of wealth luck potential for all of us. Unlike in 2014 Year of the Wood Horse, wherein wealth is largely concentrated on the first half of the year; this year’s wealth luck is spread throughout the year. However, much of our wealth and resources luck has been depleted this year, it might take us awhile to actually feel the wealth potential of 2015. It has to go through some sort of regeneration. This only mean that the last half of the year is going to be better than the first half, or at most we will start to feel the wealth luck by the 4th lunar month of the 2015 Year of the Wood Sheep. The hidden element shows two more fire, and again this serves to contribute to our wealth luck, what does this mean, even if you don’t have a clear way of making money, if you just work hard you’re sure to get it. To further enhance this wealth luck you can invite the image of Kuan Kong or Sun Wukong or Maitreya Buddha (Happy Buddha) to your home, wearing their images, as a pendant is also really good. Aside from their images you can also wear either a pendant of the three – legged toad.

Next we have two earth elements, again not counting the hidden elements, and for this year the earth element represents resources. Again, as you can see this is a very good sign because this shows that we won’t lack for personal and professional resources. This totally makes sense because resources will also lead us to wealth luck, but this also mean that even if we only a small share of resources it will still lead to great wealth. As you can see the coming year, as shown on its bazi or Paht Chee chart is showing a lot of potential for us. The hidden element shows 2 more earth elements, and this translate in the fact that when one humble oneself, and one perseveres, one will surely find the resources that they need. To enhance this year’s earth element so that you can fully tap into the luck that it brings, it is also advisable to wear any kind of gemstone. One will do and because I believe that all of us regardless of your Basket of Elements should have a jade, then let it be jade.

I’m a firm believer that everybody should have at least one jade. That is regardless of your animal sign and basket of elements.

If you’re familiar with Bazi or Paht Chee reading and with the relationships of the elements, you’ll notice that there is destructive pillar in the chart. I’m referring to the Wood element and the Earth element. This might mean that there might be significantly destructive earthquakes happening next year, especially in the first half of the year. Or it could also mean any kind of calamity that has something to do with earth or agriculture. It could also mean potential landslides brought about the storm. Again, what I write here are not fortunetelling, these are base on calculations from the year’s Bazi and my own analysis. A lot of human factor is involved so I can be wrong. For example, although, as pointed out by a reader, I was able to accurately ‘predicted’ (for the lack of word) the Yolanda (Typhoon Haiyan) crisis last 2013 down to the point as to where it might happen, I was not able to accurately analyze that there is going to be another Super Typhoon hitting the Philippines this 2014. Although, I did say that while this year is going to be really warm, strong rains is also going to happen. While my analysis was correct, I was not able to predict the Super Typhoon Ruby or Hagupit. But in hindsight, it should have been obvious but human factor; specifically my emotions disrupted the process in having a very good analysis because my emotions and mind is unable to conceive of another super typhoon hitting us.

Going back to the analysis, it should be mentioned that this destructive pillar also needs to symbolically happen because in Taoism wood destroying earth means there is a release of wealth that’s going to transpire. Figuratively, it needs to be released from its hiding place, which is believed to be deep with the earth or mountains. So again this destructive pillar is another indication that wealth luck is going to be good. And again, wood represents wealth this year, and it shows that wood is destroying earth, so again it means that if you use your resources wealth is going to come. If the destructive earthquake should happen, there is a possibility that it will happen in a part of the world where it is mountainous, because as I said it has to ‘release’ the wealth from the mountain, and there is also a possibility of it happening in Asia. That’s another good analysis of the chart but obviously we have to go through some cathartic process.

There is one element of water in the chart, and the hidden element shows no other water. Water, which represents intelligence in the 2015 Year of the Wood Sheep, simply shows that this year once intelligence is not going to be the main factor in attaining success and luck this year.

There is also one metal element found in the chart. And again this is good news because this year the metal element represents either friends or foe, it represents the self – element of the year, and if this high it will mean that it’s going to be a very competitive year, and having a low metal element means it’s going to be a year that will make those who are friendlier and not very maliciously competitive, and whose approach are not aggressive more successful. This shouldn’t be confused on the fact that this is going to be peaceful friendly year, because this year’s flying chart is ruled by #3 star, a star that shows that there will be a lot of fighting and quarrelling, this is not contradictory with each other, but more on this later.

Lastly, there is a single fire element, which is enhanced by 2 hidden fire elements, which indicates power and authority. This is good because this means that those in power or those who have authority will tend to be more helpful towards who don’t have it, but more than that, all of us will enjoy some sort of power and authority. The difference will come on how we use it. This means all of us will have some kind of leverage.

Earlier on this post, I mentioned of the destructive pillars. But the good news is there are also productive pillars. I will not go into details what are these hidden elements but I would like to state that this would manifest in enabling stability. This will manifest more in one’s career and social position.

And here’s another piece of good news for this year, this year we also have the Star of the Powerful Mentors and this manifest in the form of elderly or influential people extending help. To attract and enhance the Star of Powerful Mentor, it is beneficial to wear an image either of Amitabha Buddha, Kuan Kong/Sangharama Bodhisattva or Lu Dongbin.

Unfortunately, also base on the flying star, the year ruled by the #3 flying star that is also known as the Argumentative Star. This star brings about a lot of fighting and arguments. There will be possible lawsuits and to top it off, there might be violence brought about this star. To subdue this star, all of us must wear either the image of Kuan Kong or Ksitigarbha’s Fireball. However, to continue to protect oneself from the peripheral effect of this star, one can wear a Kalachakra made of gold or jade. Lastly, it is not enough to subdue and protect oneself from the peripheral effects of this star, it is also important to create harmony, and we can do this by wearing an image of Kuan Yin while carrying the Heart Sutra. If you can get the Kuan Yin with the Heart Sutra at the back, all the better. For those who have the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT, all you need is to get an image of Kuan Yin, because the pendant already has the image of Kuan Kong and the Kalachakra. I consider Kuan Yin, Kuan Kong, and the Kalachakra as the holy trinity of protection of the year.

Back side of my Kuan Yin pendant. You can see though it’s small the The The Heart of the Prajna Paramita Sutra is written behind it.

An analysis of the 24 Mountain Stars also indicates a generally positive year. There are so much more positive stars than negative ones. One of these stars that are quite strong is the Big Auspicious star, and almost all animal signs is actually going to feel this star. Again, to further enhance this star is recommended that you wear an image either of Kuan Kong, Sun Wukong, Yellow Dzambhala, White Dzambhala or Maitreya Buddha.

To get better view of what is in store for the year please read all the post on this series:

Once again it’s the time of the year where I’m busy with my business, because as early as now a lot of companies are doing their annual planning for the following year. But also, I have been receiving emails and text messages asking for my annual forecast, which I started 2 years ago.

Chinese New Year this year will usher in the Wood Horse, and this will show that this year those who are able to bring their positive traits will be the one who are likely to succeed. This doesn’t mean that one has to be flamboyant about their achievement, but neither it is a year to have ‘false’ humility. A silent worker who succeeds will not be recognized, but a hard worker who is able to humbly ‘show off’ his achievements will gain recognition.

Like last year, this year my forecast will include both the Bazi or Paht Chee, and at the same time the Flying Star. As regular readers of this blog will know forecast with the use of Flying Star is not as difficult as most Feng Shui experts would want us to believe. All you have to do is remember the Flying Star number, it’s effect, find out where it’s location for the year and that’s it, you’ll already know the effect.

Let’s start off with the Flying Star forecast. Like before we’ll start off with the East sector.

THE EAST HAS THE #2 FLYING STAR CALLED ILLNESS STAR

Effects: As the name implies, this star causes illness and to some extent it can be fatal or terminal. Sometime, this star can also cause some accidents that may make you invalid for a long time if not permanently. For this year, the star directly affects people born under the year of the Rabbit, and it might create some effect also with people born under the sign of the Tiger and Dragon. Technically speaking this should no longer affect people born under the sign of the Ox. However, due to the magnetic effects of some bad stars of the 24 Mountains calculation, this star will also greatly affect people under the sign of the Ox. People whose room is in the East section of their house should also take note. Furthermore, it will affect the eldest son or the only son of a family. The Flying Star #2 is also going to affect people whose house door faces East also.

Feng Shui Cure: The primary cure for the ILLNESS STAR is the Medicine Buddha. Wear an image of the Medicine Buddha as pendant or wear the symbolic script of the mantra of the Medicine Buddha to help counter the ill effects of the said star. Chanting the mantra of the Medicine Buddha is also a great way to manage the said star. Secondary cure is Wulou (also spelled as Wu Lou) or Holy Gourd. Please note that it is considered very disrespectful if you put an image of the Medicine Buddha in your room, so in this case one can put the Holy Gourd.

THE SOUTHEAST HAS THE #3 FLYING STAR CALLED THE ARGUMENTATIVE STAR

Effects: The Flying Star #3 also known, as the Argumentative Star is a star that causes relationship problem, numerous bickering, litigation problems, quarrels and problems/conflicts with people in authority. This year it will also greatly affect people born under the signs of the dragon and horse. And people whose room or office is in the Southeast section of the building or house. Not to mention, houses whose door faces the Southeast section will also encounter problems that were mentioned.

Feng Shui Cure: The best cures for this star are either the Ksitigarbha Fireball or the Nine – Ring Sword of Kuan Kong. The image of Kuan Kong is also a very good cure for this star. People affected by this star can wear or carry an image of the cures. The Maitreya Buddha also known as the Happy Fat Buddha is also a great help.

The Ksitigarbha Fireball is a pearl on the hand of Ksitigarbha Buddha that fires up when there are negative energies.

The Nine Ring Sword is the sword carried by Kuan Kong.

THE SOUTH HAS THE #8 FLYING STAR CALLED WEALTH STAR BUT THE TAI SUEY ALSO GOES TO THE SOUTH SECTOR

Effects: This star is a very good star. It gives you abundance and to some a ‘bottomless’ pocket filled with money. This star is not just about money wealth but this is also for over – all abundance. This is a star ruled by the earth element that moved into a sector ruled by fire. Regular readers of this blog knows that earth is strengthen by the Fire element, and as we discussed the Paht Chee or Bazi of the year, you’ll know that we can find a strong fire element this year, so this is a star that is particularly strong this year. People born under the year of the horse, snake, and sheep will benefit from this star.

Feng Shui Enhancers: Faux gold Coins or Bars or Ingots should be place on this sector. Wear an image of a Wealth Deity like the Maitreya Buddha, Kuan Kong, or Sun Wukong.

Faux gold bars, ingots, and coins.

Sun Wukong aka Monkey God aka Pilgrim aka ‘Great Sage, Equal to Heaven’ is a very powerful wealth and protector god. He is one of the few deities worshipped both in Taoism (also spelled as Daoism) and Buddhism.

However, it should be noted that this year, the Tai Suey God is also in the South. It has to be noted that Tai Suey is not part of the Flying Star but we need to always take this into consideration because offending the Tai Suey will create a lot of bad luck.

The Taoists, where most of how we do Feng Shui originated, believes that a certain God called Tai Suey or Tai Sui or Grand Duke in English rules a year. This year’s Tai Suey God is General Zhang Ci. However, you have to understand a little about Taoist Gods for you to be able to understand why we have to be careful in dealing with the Tai Suey.

The 2014 Tai Suey God is General Zhang Chi.

Taoist Gods are like humans with supernatural powers. They have magical and godly powers but they may also have human temperament and they also have characters and personalities. Meaning, they can get angry with our acts, they can be disturbed and get angry with us and thus render a punishment to us, or maybe the simple act of them getting irritated with us might create some misfortune. However, they can also be appease and happy with us and render us some good blessings, or again, the simple act of the Tai Suey getting happy with us will create some good fortune.

To help ensure that Tai Suey is happy with us always carry an image of the Pi Yao or Pi Xiu. This celestial animal will help appease the Grand Duke or Tai Suey. Another image that can help manage the Tai Suey God is to carry, display or wear an image of the Wind Horse or Lung Ta. People born in the year of the horse and rat, who are directly afflicted by the Tai Suey and Snake and Sheep who are in side conflict and Pig / Boar and Ox who are in semi – conflict with the Tai Suey should have either the Piyao or Lung – Ta. Also, if your door faces South, or if your bedroom and office is in the South you should also put the image of the Piyao or Lung Ta or Windhorse. People who are occupying the south also should wear or carry the image of the Piyao or Lung Ta.

THE SOUTHWEST HAS THE #1 FLYING STAR CALLED WHITE VICTORY STAR

Effects: This star brings luck to your endeavors. It helps ensure your success. This year the White Victory Star also ensures that mothers will have a ruling power over their children.

The Victory Banner is considered as one of the 8 Auspicious Object in Buddhism.

Furthermore, the Southwest also has the star of Golden Deity. So having gold colored Kuan Kong or Kuan Yin or Yellow Dzambhala in this sector (unless it’s a bedroom) will enhanced the energy of the White Victory Star. Also, wearing the image of Yellow Dzambhala, or Kuan Kong or Kuan Yin in gold will also help enhance the energy of the White Victory Star.

The biggest image of Kuan Yin in the world is in China.

There are several different forms or manifestations of Dzambhala (also spelled as Jambala or Dzambala). Dzambala is a Buddhism Wealth God. The one in the picture is the most common or most famous manifestation of Dzambhala which is the Yellow Dzambhala.

THE WEST HAS THE #6 FLYING STAR CALLED HEAVEN’S BLESSINGS AND MENTOR STAR

Effects: This star helps set the ‘tone’ of the year for people whose office, or room is in the West side of the house or building. Meaning, if you continuously do more good the more blessed you’re going to be. This also means that if you’re Chinese Animal Zodiac is not so good, you will have help from Heaven (Buddha, Bodhisattvas, Deities, Immortals, or Saints). This also means that you’ll be lucky enough to have people who will help you achieve your goal.

Feng Shui Enhancers: In your room or office put some crystal ball or 6 White Jade tied with a red string. People who are staying in this sector and people born in the year of the Rooster will do well if they invite an image of a Buddha or Bodhisattva or Deity or Immortal by wearing their image as a pendant. I personally suggest one of the following: Kuan Kong, Avalokitesvara aka Kuan Yin, Maitreya Buddha aka Happy Fat Buddha, Shakyamuni Buddha, Medicine Buddha, Yellow Dzambhala, Green Tara.

Goddess Tara is also known as Green Tara because of her green color.

THE NORTHWEST HAS THE #5 FLYING STAR OR THE DREADED FIVE YELLOW STAR

Effects: The 5 – Yellow Star is the worst of all negative stars! It’s the most dreaded star. It is said to bring 5 different kinds of misfortunes!

Feng Shui Cure: AGAIN! AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE MOVE OUT FROM THIS SECTION OR DON’T USE THIS SECTION. You can also use the Five Element Pagoda ( 5 – Element Pagoda ), or the Kalachakra. For people who stays in this section of the house or building and if you can’t move out of this sector, it is very important that you wear either the Kalachakra or the Five Element Pagoda. Furthermore, people born in the year of the Dog and Pig or Boar should also ensure that they wear either the Five Element Pagoda or the Kalachakra.

Five Element Pagoda

The Kalachakra Symbol is a powerful protection symbol. It is actually ten syllable mantra compressed into one symbol. The mantra is HO HAM KSHAMALA VARAYA HUM PHAT. However, it is usually chanted with OM AH HUM thus making the complete mantra as OM AH HUM HO HAM KSHAMALA VARAYA HUM PHAT. It is because off this that I decided to put the symbolic script OM AH HUM on top of Kalachakra Symbol. The WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT has the image of the Kalachakra.

THE NORTH HAS THE #9 FLYING STAR CALLED THE MULTIPLYING AND FUTURE PROSPERITY STAR AND IT IS JOINED BY THE THREE KILLINGS

Effects: Technically speaking, this is neither a good or bad star. The power of this star is to let you reap whatever you sow. This star basically multiplies whatever karma you accumulate. If you do more good things you’ll have more good luck in the future, but if you continue to do a lot of bad things, you multiply your negative karma as well. The Rat is also affected by this star thus it will be good if he/she can be more conscious of the things he/she does.

Feng Shui Cure: Last year, I didn’t put any enhancer or cure recommendations because I want people to be more conscious about what they do. However, a reader told me that there are times that we simply, without intending to be bad, create some things that earn us negative karma. For this I highly recommend either the image of the Medicine Buddha or the symbolic script of the mantra OM AH HUM or OM HANU PASHA BARA HE YE SOHA both of which are on the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT.

This year the Three Killings also found its way to the North. Unlike the Tai Suey or the Five Yellow Star, which we must avoid, the 3 – Killings is something that we must confront. Meaning, the best way to deal with it is to face the Three Killings and not turn our back against it. If the 3 Killings is not confronted then it can wreak three kinds of misfortunes to a person. The three misfortunes are accident, financial loss, and illness.

Another good way of dealing with the Three Killings is to place the image of the Three Celestial Guardians or images of three different Buddha, Bodhisattva, Deity or Immortal in the North section of the room, house, office, and building. Those who are staying in the South or North section of their house, office, building, or room must wear an image of the Three Celestial Guardians or images of three different Buddhas or Bodhisattvas or Deities or Immortals.

The Three Celestial Guardians are the Fu Dog, Chi Lin (also spelled as Qi Lin or Chilin or Chi Lin) and Piyao (also spelled or called Pi Yao, Pi Xiu, Pixiu).

Effects: The star brings hostility and loss through robbery, theft, or even manipulation. This year it will greatly affect people under the sign of the ox and tiger.

Feng Shui Cure: One of the following items – Image of Sun Wukong (aka Monkey God), Image of Kuan Kong (also known as Kuan Ti, Guan Ti, Kuan Te Ya, Guan Te Ya, Guan Gong), Image Elephant with Rhinoceros. For people who are staying on this side have the house or office, or for people born under the sign of the Ox and Tiger, it is advisable to wear an image of Sun Wukong, Kuan Kong, or a Mantra Pendant. The WEALTH AND MASTER PROTECTION PENDANT that has the image of THE GREAT SAGE, EQUAL OF HEAVEN – SUN WUKONG, and the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT that has the image of Kuan Kong are also advisable.

Sun Wukong or The Great Sage Equal of Heaven (aka Monkey God, Monkey King, Victorious Fighting Buddha, Bimawen, Pilgrim) is a very powerful protector and wealth god. He is one of the few deities/buddha reverred both in Taoism and Buddhism. As far as I know this is the only Sun Wukong pendant made of real gold. Have been looking for one for quite some time because I know that Sun Wukong is both a wealth and protector god, however, I can’t find any, not even in China, HK, Singapore, and Taiwan, so I decided to just make my own. If interested to get this pendant please email me at sanaakosirickylee@gmail.com .

THE CENTER HAS THE #4 FLYING STAR ALSO KNOWN AS THE SCHOLASTIC AND ROMANCE STAR

Effects: Romance luck is heightened if your room is on this side of the house. For single people, you might have the possibility of finding love. For partnered people, you might find your love getting more ‘fragrant’. However, for married couple the effect might be two fold. First, you might find yourself loving each other more deeply, but there might also be the possibility of a third party getting involved. It is also called Scholastic Star because it also has a good effect on the scholastic pursuits of a person. Meaning, students may become more studious, and professionals might find that it’s easier to understand documents. Since this stars goes to the center this year it affects all of us.

Feng Shui Enhancer: For single person you can put a Rose Quartz Mandarin Ducks on your bedside. For married couple, you can hang the Double Happiness on your headboard. To safeguard yourself from a third party, tie an Amethyst Geode with Red String on the foot of your bed. You can also use the power of Green Tara to ensure that this star works for the positive only.

And like before, we should take into consideration the year’s Paht Chee or Bazi. This year’s Bazi shows an imbalanced chart. There are 4 Yang Fire elements, 3 Wood elements 2 of which are Yang, and 1 Yin Metal. It’s pretty obvious that earth and water elements are missing. The good news here is that the year pillar shows a productive cycle or relationship and that is of the Wood and Fire element. This means that for this year, it is those who are aggressive that will enjoy great amount of success.

However, the relationship of the elements in the Bazi also shows that there is a tendency for people to misunderstand each other and for people to enter a lot of arguments. Thus, we might see more fighting both on a personal level and on a larger scale. The Philippines and China Scarborough problem will continue. It might even escalate.

This also means that people who are diplomatic will also tend to shine. These are the sheep, rabbit, pig or boar and dog. In fact, if you want peace in the family, bring in images of dogs and better yet get a real dog but do this only if and only if you can take care of the dog properly and that you can ensure that he or she grows up a well-rounded dog. You can also get a rabbit, but ensure that you take care of it properly also.

People whose Bazi chart shows a lack of Fire and/or high Earth elements will also do well this year. It is important to note that although the year is lacking of water element, there is no need to enhance the water element. In fact, people with high water rating on their bazi will see themselves having some problems, unless, of course this is negated by having very low or lacking personal fire element.

For this year, it is highly advisable that we should all have at least some gemstones on our body. Wearing jade, amber, and / or other precious or semi – precious stones will help enhance the positive chi of the year and serves as a protection against the negative effects of an imbalanced chart.

If there’s something that one should really worry about this year is the love energy. The love energy doesn’t always mean it’s good because while it can create romantic luck, it can also create extra marital affairs. Arguments that may lead to litigation or irrevocable fight or even war is also quite strong force this year. The best Feng Shui cures to use against these are the Kalachakra and the image of Kuan Kong. Tapping into the loving energy of the Buddha of Compassion Avalokitesvara or Kuan Yin and the healing energy of the Medicine Buddha are also powerful means to help counter the negative energy of that causes arguments.

Before I end this forecast, I would like to share that a lot of people are having some problems with the number of charms to wear and to keep track of the cures and enhancers that one has to wear to protect and enhance their Feng Shui. This is why I created, first, the WEALTH AND MASTER PROTECTION PENDANT, which was followed by the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT. The WEALTH AND MASTER PROTECTION PENDANT feature SUN WUKONG, and has the images of the Three Celestial Guardians and the Ksitigarbha Fireball and Five Element Pagoda. While the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT features Medicine Buddha, Kuan Kong, Yellow Dzambhala, the Kalachakra, Victory Banner, Lung – Ta or Wind Horse, and the symbolic scripts of the mantra OM AH HUM, the mantra of the Medicine Buddha, the Wish Fulfilling and the Karma Cleansing Mantra with the seed syllable of the Goddess Tara. I designed the pendant to make sure that I don’t have to change the pendant every year. With the WISH FULFILLING AND BUDDHA’S BLESSING MANTRA PENDANT I don’t have to worry about the annual, monthly, or even the daily Flying Star. Since writing about it a lot of people has requested for the pendant, and my only frustration about it is that it is quite pricey.
